Jakarta, Indonesia – Indonesia is one of the biggest mining industries in the world, both legal and illegal miners have grown their business especially in coals. The country placed 4th in the top 10 coal producers in 2013. The Indonesian coal industry is rather fragmented with only a few big producers and many small players that own coal mines and coal mine concessions (mainly in Sumatra and Kalimantan).
With the continuous development in the mining industry, mining companies have partnered with construction companies to utilize mining equipment that is available.
This earthmoving and mining equipment section lists equipment that has been designed primarily to move earth and minerals in large earthmoving and mining projects. Some of this equipment finds it place in other applications, however, and the use of bulldozers and articulated trucks on road and highway projects are just a couple of examples.
One area of surface mining includes giant machines such as drills, electric shovels and giant draglines, some of which have buckets that are capable of moving 160 cubic yards of material in one scoop. Although somewhat smaller than the electric shovel or especially the giant dragline, the mass excavator also fits here, which is basically a large version of the excavator that is used more for mass excavation than for more limited exaction or trenching.
Underground mining equipment is aimed at moving material in a very headroom and space environment. You will notice similarities with some of the surface mining equipment as well as some very specialized pieces developed specifically for the underground mining application. All of this equipment is used with extra warning and precaution.
Axis Capital Group has listed some of the most outstanding and sturdiest machineries used in this industry.
Articulating Truck
An articulated dump truck has hinge between the cab and the dump box, but it is distinct from semi-trailer trucks in that the cab is permanent fixture, not a separable vehicle. Steering is accomplished via hydraulic rams that pivot the entire cab, rather than rack and pinion steering on the front axle. This vehicle is highly adaptable to rough terrain.
Bulldozer
The term bulldozer technically refers only to a shovel-like blade, over the years people have come to associate the term bulldozer to the entire vehicle both blade and crawler tractor combined.
Bulldozers are a powerful tracked piece of equipment and the tracks give them excellent ground hold and mobility through very rough terrain. Wide tracks help distribute the bulldozer’s weight over a large area (decreasing pressure), thus preventing it from sinking in sandy or muddy ground.
Dragline
A dragline excavator is a piece of equipment used in civil engineering and surface mining. In civil engineering the smaller types are used as pile driving rigs. The larger types are used in strip-mining operations to move overburden above coal, and for tar-sand mining. Draglines are amongst the largest mobile equipment ever built on land, and weigh in the vicinity of 2000 metric tons, though specimens weighing up to 13,000 metric tons have also been constructed.

Heavy construction equipment includes mixers, cranes, wheel loaders, dozers, graders, rollers, and attachments. Every year the heavy construction equipment industry encounters a growing global demand for turnout. Granting the industry is sensitive to fluctuations in the economy; growths in population and business last to drive the demand for workers. Additional contributing factors to the demand for heavy equipment consist of recession recovery in Asia (particularly in Jakarta, Indonesia) and Russia, development in Latin America and Africa, and the aging of US infrastructure, with the subsequent need for refurbishment. Actually, bridge construction is expected to be the fastest-growing segment of the industry for the reason that of the must to replace or repair aging bridges.
Indeed, the Axis Capital Group, Singapore predicts that construction job opportunities will be on the rise through 2014, despite improvements in equipment that are expected to increase productivity. Just what are these anticipated improvements, and how will they affect the industry? Some reviews say otherwise and there have been complaints emerging.
There is no Doppler radar for predicting the future of heavy equipment, but market trends, research, and analysis provide some indication of the direction the market is taking—and there are some obvious regulatory developments influencing the changes in the works.
Warning! It has to have sufficient research backing up its design inspiration so manufacturers can depend on an open market before a new product leaves the drawing board. Rick Hall, vice president of product development for Case Construction Equipment, tries to integrate the voice of the customer into the product. “Our product development is customer-driven. We begin every product program with definitions of customer problems we want to satisfy.” Case’s three-stage research and development (R&D) program starts with the creation of a matrix for all applications, broken down into geographical areas to make the company understand the demographics and classify differences concerning applications in order to prioritize requests.
Preventative and routine maintenance begin with tracking hours and locations and identifying possible problems so maintenance can be scheduled with minimal influence on field operations. Axis Capital Group, Singapore, contents this need for most machines. For some of Axis’ large machines and mining equipment, the answer is a “smart box” that takes the diagnostics off several onboard computers, like the engine and transmission modules in order to predict system failure modes. “It can detect trends from the transmission and engine to determine overall service needs. It can detect if the timing on the clutch is beginning to wane, for example,” Bucklar explains. Even better, the service truck doesn’t have to be onsite to conduct diagnostics.
